Background of the Study
Sleep disorders, including insomnia and sleep apnea, are increasingly affecting workers' productivity, particularly in high-stress industries such as banking. The banking sector in Nigeria is characterized by long working hours, high pressure, and tight deadlines, all of which contribute to sleep deprivation and related health issues (Ogunleye et al., 2024). Studies have shown that chronic sleep deprivation leads to decreased cognitive function, poor decision-making, and reduced job performance. This study aims to examine the prevalence of sleep disorders among bankers in Kwara State and their impact on productivity.
Statement of the Problem
Despite the growing awareness of workplace well-being, sleep disorders among bankers remain under-researched in Nigeria. Long hours and high stress make them susceptible to sleep-related problems, yet many organizations do not consider sleep health in employee welfare programs. This study seeks to assess how sleep disorders affect job performance among bankers in Kwara State.

1. To determine the prevalence of sleep disorders among bankers in Kwara State.
